Facebook is full of people telling me what wonderful things their child can do, the words they can say, their counting, the books they read, their level of comprehension and understanding, how well they sit still and behaved.
None of which my child, who is up to a year older, really does.
Mine is slow to hit his milestones but always makes constant progress, no concerns from HV or nursery.
So does this mean all their children will be brighter than mine?
It's a concept I struggle with, I'm very intelligent but, as you may have guessed, plagued by anxiety. I love my child and think he's the best one ever but I feel sad that he might struggle at school.
I'm being a twat aren't I? I just want him to be really lovely, clever, handsome and good at sport.
